Thanks JR but what the weight of one of the specials would have been different. Also the weight of an RS 3100 must be different. Unless all was not checked after the first model V6.

RS3100 weight is lighter at 1050kgs (kerb weight), and the 11 ‘specials’ would be much the same weight as the usual Aus V6 capri.

Bernie, just to clarify my quote hereunder and previously posted above:
 
'Bernie, your GTV6 is NOT a DELETE option Capri, it is one of the identified 11 Capri 'Specials' that Ford Australia fitted with the 'D' port motor, etc, etc. It's got nothing to do with a 'Delete' options Capri, nothing!'
 
Your GT/V6 is first and foremost one of the identified 11 Capri' Specials' or 165hp models, last of the build or whatever we want to identify them as. That's what I was trying to pass on to you and the other contributors. It may well be a delete options Capri, but it is special, not because of that, but because it is one of the Capri 165hp 'Specials', that's all.
 
Cheers, and Happy New Year to you and all the other contributors!
 
Terry Walsh
